Hi Hana. That means "reduce" the fraction. Here's a similar problem I will solve: Put in lowest terms: ( 15x3y3 ) / ( 25x2z ). First, I reduce the co-efficients: 15/25 = 3/5 (because 5 goes into each). Now just put it together: ( 3xy3 ) / (5 z ). You can of course combine all this and do it in one step when you are good at it! Try it with your question now, Hana. Cheers, | ||||||||||||
